Montreal drawings

A couple of months ago, I backed Isketchnote on Kickstarter. It’s a tablet that allows you to vectorize your drawings as you make them. I finally received it and gave it a try :

123DBake

123DBake is a web-app that lets you ‘bake’ 3D files in a ‘microwave’. And why would you do that, you ask? Well, why not… With Manu, we wanted to play with Javascipt and webgl, so we imagined a fun and…

LEGO-compatible fablab machines

MakerFaire Rome 2013

Much has been said already on the ‘first European MakerFaire‘ which happened in Rome at the beginning of last October. It was a bit disappointing in a way, because it looked a lot like a business convention. We just had…

Bike parts : fablab VS metal workshop

I’m a big fan of 70′s Peugeot bikes. I’ve had about 10 different colors of the model called ‘Nouveau Style’. This bike looks really nice, but is a bit small to ride… And because it was designed in the 70′s,…

Modular character study for ReaDIYmate

I made some research for ReaDIYmate, a small french company that specialises in interactive toys. The idea was to have something that can be modular and have some electronics inside, so it can interact with its user in some way.…

Saxo-synth

I am doing a few workshops with nod-A at the Cité Des Sciences (Paris’ science museum) to help them set up their FabLab. For the first workshop, we built a blinking sign for the FabLab. For the second one, we…
